The Equation of Continuity and its Application to the Ice Sheet Near “byrd” Station, Antarctica

Abstract The continuity relationship that is often used in the study of ice sheets and ice shelves is developed by integrating the equation of continuity through the ice thickness. This equation is then integrated again with respect to horizontal distance from an ice divide, showing that the differe...
